Hyvää uutta vuotta! よいお年を!Happy New Year! I have teaching experience for Japanese students online and face-to-face, individual students and groups up to 11 persons in private language schools. I believe that speaking practice should be prioritized as early as possible in learning process. Using new words while speaking is a great way for memorizing them. I know how scary it is to speak in a language that you have just started studying. Don’t worry about making mistakes, we will practice at your space! I always tailor my lessons according to my students’ needs and interests, either it’s for applying for a school or work, for daily or traveling usage, or other. Note: I do not have particular experience in teaching children.

I love learning languages myself, and it's inspiring to see others be inspired to learn as well. I want to encourage my students to not be afraid to make mistakes. My lessons will focus on conversational practice instead of formal lessons, but I want to help my students to improve in an efficient way and will correct their mistakes as needed.

Jerian
I'm a language mentor. I endeavour to support my pupils' foreign language acquisition. Do you want to practice your passive language skills? Or are you a beginner looking for guidance? As someone who has tutored pupils from all walks of life, from absolute beginners to advanced learners, I may be of help at any stage. My manner of proceeding during the lesson is to construct an image about my pupil's situation and provide advice. Although I'm quite familiar with grammar and other theory, I try to teach everything through context to make it meaningful. In that way learning is engaging and fun, and it's easier to wrap one's head around things. I value that the pupil enjoys the learning process and gets to freely choose the conversation topics.

YKI-testi prep available! I believe that the most important part of language learning is speaking and communicating as much as possible. The more you do it, the more naturally you'll learn to express yourself in any language! Listening to native-level speech is also essential—especially the real, everyday language that people actually use. In Finnish, for instance, spoken language can be quite different from the formal version. I'm an empathetic and patient teacher, and I can easily adjust my speaking pace and style to suit any level. My lessons are relaxed and supportive, creating a safe space for learning. I'm always happy to tailor the lessons to each student's individual needs.

Iiris
MA in Finnish language, with 2,5+ years of experience in Finnish language teaching My previous students often commented I am patient and calm. During my career as a Finnish teacher, I have taught many students from different cultures and backgrounds. I understand well that people are different, and we learn a language by different ways and speed. I believe it is my strength that I myself learned Finnish as an adult. I understand well how it is like to learn Finnish from learners' perspectives, and I have a lot of experience to share my journeys if someone is interested in. At the same time, I am professional with a lot of experience in teaching online. I try to offer a class, that students feel a bit more confident or feel closer to Finnish language after each lesson.

As a teacher, I encourage my students to speak freely and make mistakes. I believe that the fear of making mistakes is what often holds us back from learning, so my main goal is to help you feel confident and relaxed when speaking. I’m engaging, patient, and flexible, and I always try to identify each student’s needs in order to tailor the class to the person.

Pilvi
Internationally raised MBA student with a background in early childhood education Most important to me as a teacher is that you try and feel empowered through the learning process. Mistakes are part of the learning journey. I love to challenge my students to take steps beyond what they believe they are capable of. However I don't push you beyond your limits, but I will always help you when I see you are stuck. I also acknowledge our different personalities and will learn the approach you prefer me to have in supporting you, whether it's to give more space or to be more intently present.

El finlandés tiene fama de ser un idioma difícil, pero yo creo que el problema no es la dificultad sino que tiene una lógica diferente a la del español o el inglés. Por eso, al principio hay que sumergirse en la estructura del idioma (qué es super interesante! y que además explica un poco la forma de ver el mundo de los finlandeses). (Ahora) esto no quiere decir que vamos a dejar la práctica de lado. Vamos a utilizar el idioma desde la primera clase.
